History

Originally known as "Mulatto Mountain", the mountain was renamed Simone Mountain in February 2021.[3] to honor Nina Simone (1933–2003), North Carolina native, soul musician, and civil rights activist.[4] The original name of the mountain is said to be derived from the color of the mountain's soil.[5]

Copper, gold, and silver ores have been found in the mountain.[6]
